Sing! Karaoke by Smule 4.0.7 for iphone

For singers experienced or reluctant, Sing! will get your vocal chords in check

THE VERDICT

With cool vocal effects, the option to record voice and video and even collaborative music-making, this is one hell of a karaoke app. It's just a shame that the best pop songs are paid-for only, so you are left with slim pickings if you're not willing to part with your cash.

THE PROS

There's a fairly decent selection of songs, mostly American pop. Being able to add your vocals to a friend's is especially cool. The gameplay itself is very smooth indeed: the app accurately assesses your pitch and timing, and produces a nice recording.

THE CONS

You receive a score for your efforts, but no idea of whether it's good or bad: we would prefer a percentage (à la Guitar Hero). There's no option to change the key of the song, so you might struggle with certain tracks. The song choices are pretty niche - it would be nice to have some different genres.
